Spring Collection: Citrus Scrub | apricot kernel oil & powder, tangerine

Using apricot kernels in skincare keeps them from becoming waste! A combination of gentle exfoliation with the pore-shrinking that's needed after. Suitable for most skin types except acne-prone and sensitive skin.

Apricot kernel oil nourishes and strengthens the skin barrier with omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids. It also contains Vitamin A, which can reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, and high levels of the antioxidant Vitamin E, which prevents skin damage by free radicals.

Tangerine essential oil is able to soothe irritated skin, has antibacterial properties and supports wound healing. 

Australian pink clay is a gentle exfoliant that also helps refine pores. It contains minerals such as silica, magnesium, zinc and selenium, that calm inflamed skin and keep it moisturised. The Australian pink clay in this formulation has an orange hue.
